1988 Bmw 635csi Base Coupe 2-door 3.5l on 2040-cars
Tampa, Florida, United States
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND TO THE END ? 1988 BMW 635 CSI ...Black on Grey leather. selling this nice, smooth, very strong ride...................LEGENDARY SHARK NOSE I have 2 of this model and an 88 M6 MODEL too! so far I owned 7 since 1981 so you can tell I am very well familiar with these cars ..it is a love affair I have taken care of this car so much since I purchased it over 2 years ago .. I did as much as any hard core BMW loving enthusiast will do . first I want you to be very very well sure of that this car runs great , and as you see it looks very good too..but no matter how good the pictures are !? always the reality is different a lot or a bet !every one knows that and agrees! this car turns heads every where I go in it ! I get so many thumps up and compliments! like I am in a very exotic car !!! and indeed I am IT IS AN EXOTIC CAR regardless of the value and it was branded and called the best looking car BMW ever made until the 90's hands down and still over power the Z models looks.. ' pros : IF YOU DO NOT SEE IT LISTED PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME IT IS INCLUDED OR IT IS IN A FINE CONDITION.. The car starts right up and runs very smooth..I have never had an overheat issue in it! I changed the radiator for other issue!! nor ever had a major mechanical problem!?just regular maintenance and more . I included a list of what I did to it since I had it almost more than 2 years a go. . it has never had any smoke or leaky valve guides or any leakage of any kind .. it has that famous Very clean strong motor the one it was called the (BULLET PROOF) engine combined renowned Moto-Ronic trans that shifts very smooth. the Car drives tight and handles very well. These cars are the European muscle cars of the 80's only more smooth and solid. The body is in excellent original condition with only 1 minor ding.Look at the pictures!? No rust of any kind ...only 2 surface peeling from rain water ! the leather is Nice and clean but shows age ! All the trim is in good nice shape. Factory bumper plastic still in great shape. underneath the car still in great shape and has no issues !. Power sunroof works great. Power windows go up and down just fine . All the switches are in great functioning condition ..power lock works great .. both the power seats work great.. Both Doors and panels leather is in excellent shape .. just the back of the Driver's door local handle place where it's held to get shut ! and it is very hidden too !you have to really come very close to see the back of it as well as the carpet. The leather seats look very good as you see in the pictures ! ...they just only show regular usage with creases but no rips or tears ! I have changed and fixed the following parts and more : New Fuel Sending unit New fuel pump New fuel filter New fuel pressure regulator New thermostat &Coolant flush , bleed the system New (idle control valve) New Battery New fresh Oil Change New fuel filter, New radiator , NEW belt NEW fan clutch New Air Filter New ALPINE CD removable face sound system ..the original Radio was bad and not working at all .. New whole front steering suspension (both tie rods and center link ) + Front end alignment.. New fresh complete 20-50 oil change .. new front and back brake pads and serviced the master cylinder Brake system.. New filter for the power steering pump and whole service and fresh fluid I tried my best to convey but please do not hesitate to ask more questions ? ask for more pictures if you wish ?! I do not mind take more and send them to you if you send me your e mail ? {{{{cons:}}}}} this car just only needs a little TLC and very minor things to be a real nice classic 635 CSI shark! you can tell exactly what it needs cosmetically by looking at the pictures .. the driver's side seat cushion only has the biggest issue ! just a separation in the stitching !!. the Dash has only 2 small unnoticeable cracks from the Florida sun ..look at the pics.. All enthusiasts know that no car of this era and in particular this model have ever escaped this issue ! except very very few !! of course the ones that were kept inside a garage or covered almost at all time ! or the ones who covered the dash only and kept it cool at all time from the start since they were new! except those who lived in a cold climate most of the time and they did not see hardly any heat ! the paint is in very good shiny condition on the sides of the car ! but on top of the car it got faded a little but only on top of the car ( the center of hood ,the top of the car , the center of trunk ) it got dulled out by FLORIDA sun ! I was told a good experienced paint man who can do a wet sanding can bring the shine back the driver seat cushion needs re stitching job or just new fixing ..I was quoted $150 ! I was going to fix it but I wanted to wait on the final selling price ?!if its fair ?! you must know that these cars have never changed since 1977 and they are from the 70's Auto design !! Back then they used the polyurethane for rubber parts as well as plastic parts! instead of the new synthetic rubber and plastic that stands for high temps !! they did not use the new technology material back then yet !? because it was not available ..until the 90's so those dashes and other trim parts material kept cracking and twisting easily !! if you had them exposed for a prolonged periods of time to the sunshine heat... when they start to cool they crack and become deformed ! that's why they needed to be covered or kept away in the shade from the direct sun shine heat ?! .. The in dash (( front fan blower switch )) works only on the first low speed but the rear A/C switch and fan both work great !!. .currently I am looking for that front in dash fan switch the A/C works great !! why I know that ? ...because I charged the system when I bought the car and it got very cold then ! but sadly it got warm over a month period..!!! since I owned so many of same 6 series model ! they almost all had the same problem over and over ......! .... throughout the years,!! I learned and become to know that it was a lingering problem in the 80's for all 3-5-6-7 series's!! and still with the most modern new models too !!?.... you can research this matter and find that out for your self ? I guess the BMW German makers either did not care about A/C ! to design it good ?! .....or even to improve it over the years ?!! OR .....they might thought that it does not get's very hot out side Germany back then ?! or it is the same weather temperature all over the world as in Germany ?! So I got used to this issue and did not care for any of A/C any more ! if it was or was not working any way ! I did enjoyed and still enjoy and love those cars the way they are any way ! ..they bring back great memories !! I drove these cars only on the weekends !... this one it is in a great running condition I would not be afraid to use it all the time ?! and it could be used as a daily driver ! These cars are a great investment and will only go up in value in the very near future. You just don't see any model car like these on the streets or roads any more I just do not want to keep spending any more money on it ! I have 2 more 6 model classic series models to worry about and do that on!!! I wish I could keep this car !? but right now I don't have the space nor the time . ================================ ///M NOTICE ///M =================================== OLD CARS WILL NEVER BE NEW AGAIN , NOR GOING TO DRIVE LIKE NEW ONE ! OR LOOK LIKE NEW ONCE MORE ?! UNLESS IT IS IN AN AWESOME TOP COLLECTOR SHAPE WHICH HAS BEEN PRESERVED IN A GREAT CONDITION BUT THAT IS A RARE FIND !ESPECIALLY IF IT WAS KEPT VERY CONSERVATIVELY AWAY FROM DAILY USAGE OR IT HAS BEEN RESTORED BACK TO THE ORIGINAL FACTORY PERFECT SHAPE ! OR KEPT IN ABOVE AVERAGE SHAPE AND IT HAS BEEN SPENT ON EXTENSIVELY TO MAINTAIN IT BY THE OWNER / S AND HAVE BEEN USED VERY RESPONSIBLY ON A DAILY BASES ! THOSE CARS CARRY A RANGE OF VERY VERY EXPENSIVE ,TO A VERY HIGH PRICE ,TO EXPENSIVE AND OVER MARKET VALUE PRICE AND SOME HAVE USED AND ENJOYED AND STILL IN GOOD AN AVERAGE CONDITION ! AND OTHERS HAVE BEEN ABUSED BEYOND HELP MY CAR IS AN AVERAGE CLASSIC CAR IT HAS BEEN USED BUT NOT ABUSED ! IT WAS TAKEN CARE OF NORMALLY BY NORMAL PEOPLE BUT NOT A HARD CORE COLLECTORS ! IT DOES SHOW SOME AGE AND USAGE.. SO LOGICAL EXPECTATION IS APPRECIATED =============((((((((((((((((((((((( THIS IS AN AUCTION )))))))))))))))))))======================= THE RULES OF ANY ACTION IN THE WORLD IS YOU LOOK AND AGREES BEFORE YOU BUY !?

2015 BMW i8 Prototype
Wed, 07 Aug 2013M Meets Edison
The real telling moment for the new BMW i division will be seeing how the recently tested 2014 i3 sells in its various markets, since that is the car that changes how we perceive our expectations of the brand. But this 2015 BMW i8 green supercar has all the earmarks of a slam-dunk project, we just needed to drive it and make sure for ourselves.
BMW has a spectacular test facility in southern France, called Miramas, and that's where we just had our first brief go behind the wheel of the i8. There were three cars for us there and they were dressed up in exactly the same paisley camo that we've all seen in the spy photos published everywhere for the past year. The interiors, though swathed in masking to hide all the details, varied in their color.
The troubled Alfa Romeo Giulia needs serious help [UPDATE]
Wed, Feb 10 2016UPDATE: An Alfa Romeo US spokesman responded to this article with the following statement: The safety concerns expressed in the story are false. The all-new 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia is designed and engineered to meet or exceed all federal safety regulations. The Alfa Romeo Giulia will begin production for the North American market in the late second-quarter of this year. Alfa Romeo will have a full product portfolio of premium vehicles that includes plans for (8) all-new Alfa Romeo vehicles by 2020. The product launches are prioritized by segment volumes starting this year with the Alfa Romeo Giulia production for North America starting in late Q2, followed by the Midsize-UV – the 2nd largest premium segment in North America. Even on the day you dragged them kicking and screaming and gesticulating wildly to a table full of concrete evidence, Alfa Romeo executives will never admit the Giulia program is going through a tough patch. But it is. Reports say the Giulia, on the eve of production, didn't just fail one internal crash test, but failed the front, side and rear impact tests. Alfa denies it. Automotive News published a report last week saying two suppliers had insisted the Giulia, on the eve of production, didn't just fail one internal crash test, but failed the front-, side-, and rear-impact tests. A third supplier source told us the same thing. Alfa is denying it. It was due on sale in Europe late last year and was supposed to be here in the next month or two. But it wasn't, and it won't. It was to be headlined by a twin-turbo V6 that reportedly howled its way around the Nurburgring 14 seconds faster than the BMW M3 could manage. That second part is only true if you believe it's fair to compare a full lap in a standard BMW M3 with a favorable accumulation of sector times to a development prototype Giulia with 220 pounds stripped out of it and rolling on hand-cut racing slicks. No, me neither. A Promising Start The Giulia's all-new architecture was developed in just two years by a skunkworks of young engineers headed by Fiat's engineering prince, Philippe Krief, and (bafflingly) sited inside Maserati's headquarters complex in Modena, about three hours from Alfa Romeo's own Turin HQ.
